Effects of Timers on
Roaming
An unsuccessful roaming attempt might be caused by the following
timers. You cannot configure either timer.
Grace period
— A disassociated session has a grace period of
5 seconds during which MSS can retrieve and forward the session
history. After 5 seconds, MSS clears the session, and its accounting is
stopped.
MAC address search
— If MSS cannot find the client’s MAC address
in a Mobility Domain within 5 seconds, it treats the session as a new
session rather than a roaming session.
In contrast, the 802.1X reauthentication timeout period has little effect
on roaming. If the timeout expires, MSS performs 802.1X processing on
the existing association. Accounting and roaming history are unaffected
when reauthentication is successful, because the client is still associated
with the same MAP. If reauthentication fails, MSS clears the session so it is
not eligible for roaming.
If the client associates with the same MAP, the session is recorded as a
new session. (To change the reauthentication timeout, see “Setting the
802.1X Reauthentication Period” on page 537.)
Monitoring Roaming
Sessions
To monitor the state of roaming clients, use the
display sessions
network verbose
command. For example, the following command
displays information about the sessions of a wireless client who roamed
between the ports on a WX switch.
The output shows that the client
SHUTTLE\2\exmpl
roamed from the MAP
connected to port 3 to the MAP connected to port 6 on the same WX,
and then roamed back to the MAP connected to port 3.
